This week the podcast is recorded at the Time Out Market in Lison, or do we have to say Lisboa?

Jean and Stuart discuss how you choose a cruise ship. The difference is not just how they sail in poor weather, although Jean does mention the wristbands you should carry that are listed in our online shop - see the menu at www.DorisVisits.com where we just refer you to links of cruise items.

What is a small ship? Well, technically under 1,000 guests. Many would argue that big as some classic small ships are between 300 and 700 and we love the R-Class ships that Azamara and Ocean run. What is a big ship, well, approaching 7,000 guests.

Our three ships visited, with full films listed in the blog, are Spirit of Adventure at just under 1,000 guests. Queen Mary 2 at around 2,600 guests. The P&O Iona was full with 5,200 guests and Gary Barlow played two shows in the main stage with his band.

There is also a film of the Time Out Market in Lisbon, seated in the associated blog on Doris Visits.

Also, this week, we ask you to vote. We don't stand a chance, or maybe we do if you all vote. We are new, small and independent... but there is a category for that.

Two minutes please, a genuine call for help. Please VOTE... for the Doris Visits Podcast at @ https://podbiblemag.com/pod-bible-listener-polls-2022.../ we produce lots of helpful content, and the podcast reflects the port guides, and talks to you cruise cabaret acts, and cruisers from the chat groups. We would love to chat with you on a future podcast, but please vote for the Podcast by adding in CRUISING WITH DORIS VISITS in the last section of voting, the small independents... that is us. While passing TV and Film please vote for our daughter's podcast Dreamroles on the way through to us in the final section... Thank you, Thank you.
